Tell us a few other amazing things most people don\u2019t know about the 5DmkII.<br \/>\nSI\tHere are three things.<br \/>\n1 &#8211; The 5DmkII has a very wide range of ISO settings and excellent exposure latitude in the Raw data. With the custom function ISO expansion engaged, the camera&#8217;s settings allow for a low ISO of 50 for extra<br \/>\nexposure control, and up to ISO 25,600 for the ability to shoot in near darkness.<br \/>\n2 &#8211; Live view mode offers the ability for very accurate focusing in critical shooting, particularly with specialty lenses like the Tilt-Shift type. When using a the Tilt feature of these lenses, obtaining very accurate focusing<br \/>\non a plane not parallel to the imaging plane has always been a challenge&#8230; until the advent of live view. Now, particularly because of the 5x and 10x magnification possibilities on screen using live view, it&#8217;s easy to review<br \/>\nperfect focus with the lens&#8217; tilt feature engaged, as what&#8217;s being viewed is the actual feed from the sensor itself.<br \/>\n3 &#8211; The LCD monitor on the rear of the 5DmkII is a very generous 920,000 pixels for an excellent review experience.<br \/>\nHere&#8217;s a quick roundup of Canon 5DmkII features.<br \/>\n21.6 mp &#8211; 5616&#215;3477 pixels &#8211; 18.72&#8243;x12.48&#8243; at 300 ppi<br \/>\n14-bit &#8211; 16,383 tones per channel<br \/>\nHighlight Tone Priority &#8211; adds one stop to the highlights<br \/>\nDIGIC IV processor for increased speed<br \/>\n3.9 frames per second<br \/>\n16-19 Raw frame bursts<br \/>\n310 continuous JPEG frames<br \/>\nNew AF modes &#8211; Quick Mode, Lens Mode, Face Detect<br \/>\nLive Mode rear display<br \/>\n920,000 pixel display<br \/>\nISO 50 &#8211; 25,600<br \/>\nSelf-cleaning sensor and dust delete function<br \/>\nHD video (1920&#215;1080 pixels) at 30 frames per second<br \/>\nPriced under $3,000<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.usa.canon.com\/consumer\/controller?act=ModelInfoAct&amp;fcategoryid=139&amp;modelid=17662\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Find out more at Canon.<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/astore.amazon.com\/johnpaulcapon-20?node=84&amp;page=2\">Find it in my Astore.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m loving my new Canon 5DmkII.
